Exhibiting the same lack of intelligence like saying Confederate monuments glorify slavery, the leftist revolutionaries say that this Columbus monument in NYC glorifies genocide. Naturally there are other historical figures that are still on their chopping block.

NYC Council advances bid that could yank monuments honoring Washington, Jefferson, Columbus

New York’s City Council — which just passed a budget that’s already been deemed a flop — is now spending some of its time advancing a plan that could kill off monuments honoring figures such as George Washington.

The Democratic-led council’s Cultural Affairs Committee is set to hold a public hearing Tuesday on a proposal to yank artworks from city property dedicated to historical figures such as George Washington, Peter Stuyvesant and Christopher Columbus because of their controversial pasts.

But critics immediately branded the effort as cancel culture run amok.

“Columbus was a migrant!’’ fumed Angelo Vivolo, president of the Columbus Heritage Coalition.

Vivolo vowed to fight any attempt to remove monuments of the famous Italian explorer from city parkland — including the most recognizable statue at Columbus Circle.

Of course, it was President Bidenete that issued the proclamation to make Indigenous Peoples' Day the same day as Columbus Day. Besides being an attempt by a baldfaced lair to erase Columbus from history, the Jacobin dicktator used the opportunity to pander to woke Indians, and some ate it up hook line and sinker. If I was an Indian, I would spit on any gifts from the Great White chief because you know the bill is in the mail.
